Config option to ignore Intralink Filebased Attrbute Definition warning

Config option to ignore Intralink Filebased Attrbute Definition warning

Is there a config.pro option to ignore Intralink Filebased Attrbute Definition warnings that pops up when I save objects?
Many of our models are from other business divisions and have parameters designated that our local Intralink settings does not match.

Here's one for Friday:
Is there a config to avoid ALL TYPE of confirmation warning messages in Pro/E?
When I hit the delete key or execute any other command, I really mean it, I do not need a confirmation.
I know what I want!
Isn't there a config setting for users that are fully awake at work?

Thanks in advance,
Ronnie Shand

Oh, it's Friday I'll bite. 😄

I'd be happy if they'd just leave things alone and let me work with the
keyboard to dismiss the windows. Prior to WF1 or WF2, selecting a
feature and hitting the delete key would bring up the "are you sure"
box, but OK was the default choice, so hitting enter would dismiss the
box & delete the feature. Delete -> enter -> feature gone.

Now the default choice is 'Cancel', so Delete -> enter > feature stays.
Took my a minute of "Huh?!" to figure that out the first time it
happened. Sure it's 'safer', but that's not the default behavior of
Windows (try it in any folder on your PC) or Outlook. So we're used to
it from the past in Pro|E and it's accepted in Windows. What's worse is
that I can't use the arrow keys to select OK instead. In most other
Windows programs, the arrow keys will toggle between the controls in a
dialog box, so you could do delete -> left arrow -> enter -> feature
gone. Doesn't work in Pro|E, I've got to do delete -> find my cursor ->
pan it over to the dialog box -> click on the OK button -> feature gone.

Minor annoyance? Yes, but not only are there dozens and dozens of these
in Pro|E, it was an arbitrary change it goes against accepted Windows
practice.

Tab


Awesome!

Lyle sent the same thing - "Try Delete > Tab >Enter > feature goes away
(Tab toggles through the buttons in most all dialog boxes in windows)"

Who says a good rant can't be productive? 😛

Thanks guys.
